Chapter 12 Treatment of Authors in Mingqian Company
Except for eating and going to the bathroom, Yue Qingyan spent almost all his time writing. Eating and drinking were basically made up for supplies. Xu Yingying or A Yue. In the video, people in the company found that he would hardly stop, but would glance at the side where the food was being put on, and then continue to write. When eating, he thought of sentences or expressions, and he would write them down or write them on the wall as soon as possible, and then continue to eat. Later, when Xu Yingying saw Yue Qingyan’s eyes looking at the food, he knew that it was time to order takeout.
Thirty thousand words are actually not a lot. If you are a professional author, you usually have a pure typing speed of more than 2,000 per hour. But Yue Qingyan’s biggest pressure is that once his manuscript is finalized, there is no chance to modify it. It is one thing to wait until the manuscript is reviewed before revising it, but at least it is impossible to modify it significantly. Therefore, he handled it with one paragraph at a time and was extremely cautious. The next day he finished two paragraphs, and the length was advanced to more than 9,000 words. On the third day, he wrote 14,000, and the whole article was completed more than 70%. On the fourth day, he got stuck for a while, and he didn’t write much, which was only more than 4,000. Until the fifth day, he completed the entire article. The full text was 29,282 words.
The most important thing is that almost all typos are due to typing errors. Many of them have corrected themselves, and the entire Mingqian editorial department has solved the problem with the third review and three proofreading of the entire Mingqian editorial department at an extremely fast pace. This efficiency, concentration and amazing text quality have convinced Mingqian.
On the Internet, at the beginning, all kinds of boring people entered the live broadcast room and watched the boring typing process. But more and more authors, whether professional or amateur, came in after seeing the official links posted by Mingqian on Weibo. Then, many people stayed in the live broadcast room and used the live broadcast room as a chat room to exchange views on what Yue Qingyan wrote and his views on Yue Qingyan's deathly focused view.
"I have to play a game for about an hour."
"I probably play games every day until 10 o'clock and it's too late to open wps."
"I'm so amazing, I'll stop it before I can. Anyway, readers have become familiar with my style."
"Don't take out online articles to compare the quality of texts with publishing."
"Some articles are still comparable. Publication is also very popular now."
"This short story is not bad. It's scary to write such short stories faster than online articles."
"I doubt I am qualified to be an author."
"If you have any doubts, don't leave, have an appointment to have a drink."
…………
Such chats have almost never stopped for a few days. Although this article "Red Rose and White Rose" has not yet been included in the novel collection, it has been carefully studied by online games and various authors and editors. At first, someone just watched the screen and uploaded it. Later, Mingqian Company thought it would not take this effort, so she posted a review draft online and released it with the review opinions on it. The manuscript handed over by Yue Qingyan was no more than 3 typos on ten thousand words, plus punctuation marks
There were no more than 8 mistakes, and there were almost no grammatical problems throughout the whole process. In some places, Yue Qingyan felt that there might be some errors in understanding in the future, and even marked them himself to prevent the review from moving. This amazingly completed novel was finally completed by everyone, and when it was finally completed, there were almost 1,000 people in the live broadcast room. Although the live broadcast was not profitable, the live broadcast room had accumulated nearly 100,000 income in the past few days. Many authors thought it was amazing and gave a reward.
Many of the online writers have said this at the end of their chapters in the past few days, which has attracted more people who are good at it. Although the overlap rate between online readers and traditional literature readers is not high, they still have a basic understanding of good articles.
With such a round, more rounds of pushing and fermenting, Yue Qingyan's name was known to more people. From this perspective, it may indeed be of some help to him.
But Xu Yingying looked at Yue Qingyan's condition these days and was very worried. Sitting still for many hours every day is also very tired, and it has many bad effects on health. Not to mention the high-speed consumption of brain power, which is even more unmeasurable.
Although the food and drinks have not been bad these days, and the amount is also quite large, Yue Qingyan still tried it at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Finally handed over the manuscript, Yue Qingyan lay on the table for more than an hour before then stood up a little staggeringly and walked out of the conference room.
Everyone in the office looked at him.
"It should be that I didn't waste time." Yue Qingyan asked Xu Yingying who was walking towards him.
"No, no. Come with me and go and have a good rest first."
At this time, Yue Qingyan was already a little dazed. After saying oh, he followed Xu Yingying and slept in the taxi for a while. Then he woke up at the hotel for a while and was taken into the room by Xu Yingying. Although Yue Qingyan wanted to take a shower, he fell asleep immediately as soon as his head touched the pillow.
When he woke up, it was already midnight. Yue Qingyan was only able to have the sanity to observe this space.
It seemed to be a very high-end hotel. He found the name of the hotel on the table: Jing'an Rigi. And the company in Mingqian opened a very good room for him and had a huge bathroom. What made him feel particularly considerate was that there was a large bathtub.
There is a sandwich delivered by the hotel on the table in the room, and a small card is placed next to it, which says: After getting up, eat first, take a shower. Change the clothes and prepare it for you in the wardrobe. If you need to call the front desk, the company will pay the bill, don’t be polite. I will come to the hotel to pick you up tomorrow morning. Xu Yingying.
Yue Qingyan looked at his phone and the battery was still full. His phone was plugged into the charging cable these days and he had hardly touched it. He looked at the people in his phone address book, okay... there was really no one else to contact him. The size of the replacement clothes that Xu Yingying bought for him was very suitable, and it was basically produced by Uniqlo Muji. He neatly opened the packaging bag, cut off the washing mark, and hung it in the closet. The shirt was still burnt. Xu Yingying, a rich girl, didn't expect to be so meticulous in caring for people.
Anyway, there was no one to contact, and he was still extremely tired and exhausted, so Yue Qingyan really went to take a shower. Then he suddenly remembered the skills of his two novels, hesitated for a long time, opened the document in his mobile phone, and extracted the skills.
This time, I was lucky. The one I drew in "Soul Broken Gun" was "Shazilong-Soul Broken Gun"
Skill: Soul-breaking gun
Source character: Sand Dragon
Starting props: guns, sticks, or other objects with similar shapes
Note: To fully master the Soul-Breaking Spear, you can use props to use all 64 styles of the Soul-Breaking Spear or some of them. The Soul-Breaking Spear has a complete offensive and defensive skill system. When using the Soul-Breaking Spear move, the character's offensive and defensive ability is increased by 150%.
Not bad, although I don’t know how to use it for the time being, it is at least the core skill of the protagonist. Yue Qingyan finally has a combat skill, which can make him stinking. However, the security is still very good now, and he is not interested in causing trouble to eliminate violence and peacefulness, and this skill is only worth demonstrating.
What I drew in "Red Rose and White Rose" is "Jiaorui-Piano Preliminary (Part)"
Skills: Piano Preliminary (part)
Source of the character: Jiaorui
Starting props: piano and keyboard instruments with piano-like characteristics.
Note: Preliminary mastery of the operation and theoretical knowledge of piano skills. Proficient in the tracks such as "Shadow Waltz" and their variations, and have the foundation to continue learning piano skills. This skill can be improved through continuous practice. Obtaining the same skills can be superimposed and upgraded.
One literary and one martial arts, this is considered to have mastered two powerful pretentious skills. Moreover, the piano skill is also very beneficial for improving cultivation. Of course, for the author, mastering another keyboard usage method sounds a bit strange. In any case, this is the most useful skill so far.
Yue Qingyan slept well. The next morning, when he was having breakfast in the hotel, Xu Yingying's phone call came. After he finished eating, he took him to the company and went directly to Lianxingjie's office. Lianxingjie and A Yue were waiting for him.
"Xiao Yue is here." A Yue said with a smile: "This time, everyone is very convinced. It's so amazing."
"It's good that it's not wrong. I'm actually not sure." Yue Qingyan is not modest. Remember the story again. The reconstruction of "Red Rose and White Rose" is very tormenting. I didn't dare to slack off these days, and the final result was still good.
"It is the quality that makes everyone overjoyed. The results of the live broadcast are also very good. Of course, the number of people is incomparable to those anchors, but the influence in the circle is gone." Lian Xingjie said.
"Live broadcast?" Yue Qingyan was stunned.
"Oh, when you started writing, I asked you, how about you typing like this these days, and you're going to start a boring live broadcast? Just say whatever you want." Xu Yingying was still a little guilty when she said this.
"Oh, oh." Yue Qingyan couldn't remember anything he had said or hadn't said, "That's it. That's fine."
"The income from the live broadcast will be transferred to you later. Then, the authorization agreement for these novels will be signed. Another thing is to talk to you. Should you sign a long-term agreement with us tomorrow?" Lian Xingjie asked: "We have seen all your abilities and are looking forward to it, so I want to tie you to our chariot as soon as possible."
"We are quite good to the authors in the Ming Dynasty and are well-known in the industry. Long-term contracts are mainly copyright authorization and priority, as well as restricted broker contracts." A Yue began to explain the composition of their author's long contracts. The Ming Dynasty did not restrict Yue Qingyan's creation, but the works he created were handed over to Ming Dynasty agents, and enjoyed 10% royalties in publication, and as the total number of releases, they enjoyed incremental royalties. Regardless of the length, novel works were distributed and promoted by Ming Dynasty agents. After the sale of authorization, the two parties divided the 60% of the total. If it was a copyright cooperation project, Ming Dynasty would pay cash to Yue Qingyan first according to the valuation of the work in the cooperation agreement. These terms are relatively fair, especially for a newcomer.
The brokerage contract part is to communicate with Yue Qingyan in advance on some targeted creation needs or collective creation. If you get permission, you can act as an agent in combination with business demands. It is also a very flexible contract.
"What if I want to write an online article?" Yue Qingyan said: "This seems to be out of your scope."
Lian Xingjie and A Yue were stunned. They looked at it and thought that Yue Qingyan was a typical traditional literature approach and had great potential, but he said he wanted to write online articles. If he didn't deliberately shirk it, it might be an interesting opportunity?
"The right to disseminate online electronic information for all works belongs to you. If you use this contract, just add one." Lian Xingjie said without much hesitation: "This will basically not affect our cooperation. We don't understand the online literature platform, but we are still interested in getting in touch with it."
"Then I have no objection." Yue Qingyan said with a smile: "Sign it."
Chapter completed!
